President of the Qatar Motor and Motorcycle Federation (QMMF) and Lusail International Circuit (LIC) Abdulrahman bin Abdullatif al-Mannai hailed the success of Lusail Speed Fest, which concluded with the MotoGP Grand Prix of Qatar at the Lusail International Circuit yesterday.
The Lusail Circuit had also hosted the inaugural Qatar 1812 KM – FIA World Endurance Championship the previous weekend.
Al-Mannai said in a statement: “As the Lusail Speed Fest wraps up with the season-opening race of MotoGP at Lusail International Circuit today, we are truly delighted to have brought two back-to-back motorsport events to fans in Qatar and the region over the past two weekends. With the track brimming with action and celebration of skill, hosting such international events not only helps us build on Qatar’s rich sporting legacy but also inspires future generations.
He added: “The season does not stop here for us as our goal is to become one of the world’s most recognisable motorsports venues. We eagerly anticipate the return of Formula 1 later this year, promising our fans and the participating teams an unforgettable experience, stronger and better than ever.”
